| At
the height of the westward expansion in the late 1800s, came John Muir.
While thousands left their homes in the east and sought riches in the untamed
west, John Muir was a small voice of conservation. He was disturbed
by what he saw as a loss of natural resources. This is the story
of Muir's visit to Yosemite in 1868. It is based on a true story
but many of it is made up. |
